Chapter 134
Her boss was a man in his fifties. He wasn’t tall, but had an authoritative air about him with his sharp
gaze.
“Aurelia,” he called out.
Everyone instantly turned to look at her.
“I’m here.” She stood and said, “I was just about to go to you…‘
The boss raised a hand and interrupted her.
“It’s fine. I already know what happened. You have better performance than Kimberly, but that’s not an excuse for you to bully your colleague or to satisfy your ambition. You represent this firm, not yourself.”
“Sir…” Aurelia was startled by his tone.
“How dare you run over to One Technology to claim someone’s credit? So what if you signed the contract? You’ve embarrassed this company. Throughout my career, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone so reckless!” The boss threw the file in his hand at Aurelia in rage.
“No, that’s not …” Aurelia tried to defend herself, but was interrupted by Kimberly.
As the words fell, Kimberly stumbled into the arms of her colleagues.
Instantly, speculation ran rife among the crowd about what Aurelia might have done.
After all, Kimberly had connections with the boss at One Technology, and securing the position of
vice director seemed inevitable for her.
How could Aurelia effortlessly sign a contract instead?
At this moment, Zachary stepped forward. He pointed at Aurelia with anger and said, “Aurelia! What’s this attitude? Did you really think you’ve achieved something just because Kimberly overlooked your plagiarism?”
“Plagiarism?” Aurelia looked shocked as she glanced between Zachary and Kimberly.
She hadn’t expected them to turn the tables on her.
People around gasped at the accusation.
Plagiarism was the most abhorred offense in their profession, especially when committed among colleagues.
Zachary remained unfazed and said, “Your proposal is an exact copy of Kimberly’s. Out of consideration for your mother’s illness, we didn’t expose you publicly. We even approved your leave to take care of your mother. But what did you do? You went to One Technology to steal the credit! You’ve embarrassed us and the entire company.”

Aurelia was unwilling to be wrongly accused and immediately retorted, “Mr. Zeller, it was you who informed me that the presentation at One Technology would take place on Tuesday and asked me to prepare for it. Yet, you went there today without me. What’s the meaning of this? Were you deliberately avoiding me?”
“Nonsense! Do you have any evidence that I deliberately misled you about the timing? Both of you are my subordinates. Having either of you become vice director is a good thing for me. Why would I do this? Clearly, you misheard the timing, and we couldn’t reach you,” Zachary said sternly.
